While the boss is away...


When all you do is look at metadata all day you need to take a break. And that's just what happened yesterday as blenders whirred and fruit concoctions like Strawberry Surprize and Mango Mania were downed by thirsty guests.


In reality the guests were teens taking part in the Amherst Public Library's Teen Beach Day. Thirsty students were thankful for the fruity refreshment that went along with beach buckets of popcorn and lots of Guitar Hero on the library's two X-Box 360s.

"This was the best teen event ever" replied on happy guest who even stayed to run the vacuum cleaner. Hey when you can get a teenager to clean up then they must have had fun.

Of course some of the librarians were more than happy to test out some of the recipes before the program began. What exactly was in the blender you ask? Hey, what happens at the library, stays at the library.


The library has books on smoothie recipes and other refreshing drinks to that anyone can replicate the fun at home with just a few simple ingredients. Check out some of the great books we offer here at the library.
